Do you want to lose weight but sport is not your strong point? You will love this activity. Find out which one it is below.
Fatigue, low morale, injury… Although physical activity is essential to maintain good health, certain periods are more favorable than others to get started. So, if you are going through a difficult time, we have found a moment of relaxation to do to continue burning calories.
What do this activity have in common with sport? You sweat, your heart rate increases, and your metabolism activates. Result: your body expends energy. According to a video posted on the TikTok account @caliceo_off, “a 15 minute session burns as many calories as light jogging”. But then, what differentiates the two? You can sit and/or lie down, close your eyes or not, daydream and/or chat without running out of breath. Leave your sports outfit in the closet, you won’t need it. In your bag, only take a swimsuit, a towel and a water bottle. So, do you have an idea of the activity in question? By elimination, it is not a stay at Center Parcs, nor a moment of relaxation in the hammam, but rather a sauna session. The Caliceo Wellness Center recommends 1 to 2 sessions per week.
Did you know? The sauna is more than 2000 years old and is believed to have originated in Finland. The cold climate pushed the Finns to find a way to generate heat. Bet successful! Moreover, the site nordicfrance.com tells us that“it was even common, until the end of the 19th century, to see births taking place there, because the Sauna was considered the cleanest room in the house”. Well, our goal here is not to find a place to give birth to a baby but to lose those extra pounds.
You probably suspect it, but this wellness session does not replace physical activity. Your body needs to be moving to continue functioning perfectly for years to come. So, in addition to the sauna, we recommend that you find a sport that you enjoy and that motivates you. Maybe the two together will become a ritual filled with benefits!
